Alembic's team will be at the Alchemy Conference 2025 in Braga, Portugal next week! Our team will be sharing insights in both an in-depth one-day workshop and a conference talk, focusing on enhancing Elixir application development with Ash and Igniter.
We are also sponsoring Alchemy Back from the Road evening on 31st March, and are looking forward to celebrating Elixir with the community! If you are a passionate Elixir developer with a demo (under 10 minutes) of a project, prototype, or an Elixir-related development that you’d like to showcase, register your Lightning Talk here and be part of the experience!
If you’re heading to the conference or the evening, hit our Alembians up with your Ash and Igniter questions!

The Next Dimension of Developer Experience
Zach Daniel
Igniter is a project patching and code generation framework for Elixir. It allows us to seamlessly install and upgrade our packages. By leveraging AST-based code patching, library authors can provide intelligent installer and upgraders, massively improving the developer experience for getting started with a new Elixir tool.
The talk delves into Igniter's capabilities, exploring from basic to advanced use cases, its impact on developer experience, and its potential to transform the way we work with our Elixir applications every day.
